MINSK, 17 December (BelTA) – The continued war in Ukraine will trigger a global conflict, Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko said in an interview with the U.S. media company Newsmax, BelTA has learned.
“The gravest danger lies in the potential for this conflict to persist and escalate, an outcome that would have severe consequences for Europe and the world. It will inevitably grow into a global conflict. Therefore, it must be extinguished while there is still a chance,” said Aleksandr Lukashenko. “Such an opportunity exists now more than ever, particularly since the Americans have engaged seriously with this issue. This is your [America’s] most critical foreign policy matter. Neither Taiwan nor any other conflict or problem in the world can overshadow it, because, I reiterate, the continuation of this conflict will lead to a global war, involving all weapons at the disposal of nations. This must not be allowed.”
